Ploumanach - La Plage de Granite Rosé

It's not exactly the best time of the year to go to the beach, its still a bit cold outside. But dammit, this is sort of my spring break and in the states we go to the beach for spring break...

yeah, ok, I think I've actually gone to the beach once for it. :-/

This is about an hour and a half from Plouédern, Flo's hometown. This is one of the few places that actually has pink rocks on the beach. It was very nice, especially since the grass is always green here (because it rains all the time).

And as usual, France is covered with Castles... this one is owned by some artist who probably visits it two times a year. Lucky bastard.


























I was ordered to stand next to this thing so pictures could be taken of me. :-)




This is Flo's dad, Gilbert (pronounced jilbear).

He was nice enough to buy us crêpes after our stroll on the beach. I think this is part of Flo's neverending quest to make me fat... it's working so far... soon none of my jeans will fit me any more.




I'm sure something like this has been taken a million times.




Flo likes to mess up my pictures.






























Their usage of the natural landscape is quite interesting, I think.

WELL FINALLY!!! REALLY ENJOYED THE PHOTOS.
ON THE OTHER HAND, YOUR "BEACH ATTIRE" IS A BIT ODD -- A HEAVY RED COAT!! (WHERE IS YOUR BATHING SUIT OR WAS THIIS AN 'AU NATURAL" OCCASION??

I CAN HONESTLY SAW THAT I HAVE NEVER WORN A LONG COAT TO THE BEACH. SWEAT PANTS AND SWEAT SHIRT WORN OVER MY SUIT -- THAT'S HOW TO DO IT.

DID YOU AT LEAST PUT YOUR FOOT IN THE WATER???
